Sentamu to Send Bible to Every MP
Archbishop urges MPs to 'do nothing to change their lives' this summer - except to read the 100 Minute Bible.

Friday, August 10, 2007

Dr John Sentamu, the Archbishop of York, is to send every MP in the country some summer reading - the 100 Minute Bible and a guide to slowing down.

The guide, written by the Bishop of Reading, the Rt Rev Stephen Cottrell, and released earlier this year, is entitled Do Nothing to Change Your Life. The book urges its readers to create pauses in daily life to benefit their own, and society’s, health and well being. The book argues this fresh perspective of relishing every moment with a greater attentiveness will improve our relationship with God.

"Do Nothing to Change Your Life is a passionate plea for the nation to ditch endless ‘to do’ lists, constant streams of emails, and an increasingly ‘24/7’ culture," said the Church of England. The book was published following an international study that showed that the pace of life in our cities has increased by 10 per cent in the last decade.
